PLTW Launch

Kindergarten through Fifth Grade
Engaging students at a young age builds confidence, grows interest, and
puts them on course for strong accomplishments in middle school, high
school, and beyond.

Through PLTW Launch, students become problem solvers. Students use
structured approaches, like the engineering design process, and employ
critical thinking. They apply STEM knowledge, skills, and habits of
mind, learning that it is OK to take risks and make mistakes. As
teachers and students learn and discover together, education becomes far
more engaging.

Aligned to state and national standards
PLTW Launch aligns to Common Core State Standards for Math and English
Language Arts, Next Generation Science Standards, and other national and
state standards.

PLTW Launch curriculum includes 24 modules aligned
to grade-level standards. The 10-hour modules are presented in pairs
that combine to create a thematic unit.
